Working Groups

Economic Inequality and Family Change
Working Group The Economic Inequality and Family
Change working group is designed to provide CFDR faculty and advanced
graduate students the opportunity to read and discuss recent books by
three leading scholars on how families change and cope with economic
shifts and inequalities. The books use a mix of quantitative and
qualitative methods and address macro-level trends as well as
micro-level responses in family behaviors. If you are interested in
joining this working group, please contact Karen Guzzo.

Add
Health Working Group The Add Health working group
provides CFDR faculty affiliates and graduate students the opportunity
to meet other users of National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent
Health (Add Health), share information on these data, present
preliminary ideas or analyses, and collaborate on projects. (You can
find out more about Add Health using this link: http://www.cpc.unc.edu/projects/addhealth.)

Crime
and Violence in Context Working Group The Crime and
Violence in Context working group is targeted towards CFDR faculty
affiliates and graduate students who are interested in linkages

working group considers not only how crime and violence change over

of criminal trajectories for union formation and parenting. Interested
persons should contact the leader of this working group, Jorge Chavez
at jchavez@bgsu.edu to join.

Families,
Households, and Aging Working GroupThe working group on Families, Households, and Aging

family relationships in later life and the demography of aging to
discuss ongoing research projects. To join this group, please contact
Susan Brown (brownsl@bgsu.edu)

offers affiliates the chance to learn more about funding agencies and
mechanisms (with an emphasis on the National Institutes of Health) and
to obtain feedback from other affiliates on grant proposals in
different stages of preparation. If you are interested in joining this
group, e-mail Kara Joyner (kjoyner@bgsu.edu).

Research
on Intimate Partner Violence Working Group The Research on Intimate Partner Violence working group is
designed to provide CFDR faculty and advanced graduate students the
opportunity to read and discuss seminal articles on intimate partner
violence as well as more recent pieces. The articles featured in the
